2024 Draft Profile - Tristen Newton

Kevin O'Connor - The Ringer - June 17th: "Though he struggles off the dribble, he did make over 80 percent of his free throws in every collegiate season, so he clearly has touch. But he has fairly stiff mechanics that likely limit his jumper. Skilled at-rim finisher."

NBA Draft Room - June 16th: "A complete guard who plays both ends and can get hot from 3. He’s got size at the point guard position and is just a solid all around player who plays a team game."

Jonathan Wasserman - Bleacher Report - May 30th: "Tristen Newton surprised scouts when he opted to skip scrimmaging. Teams should ultimately have a confident feel for the 23-year-old's game, which played a key role during Connecticut's repeat championships. Newton should draw second-round interest and two-way offers from teams who see a Swiss Army knife guard who can make plays for teammates, knock down shots and adapt to different roles and situations."
